FALL RIVER — A cellphone and three iPads that police seized from Aaron Hernandez’s North Attleborough home last summer will not be allowed into evidence because police failed to include those items on their search warrant application.

On Tuesday, superior court Judge E. Susan Garsh wrote that state police detectives were careless when they applied for the search warrant. The judge added that it appeared that Trooper Michael Cherven, who applied for the warrant, apparently did not read it before he and other troopers searched Hernandez’s home on June 18, 2013.

“Had he done so, he would have spotted the fact that the GPS devices and evidence of damage to the Altima were omitted from the description of the property sought to be searched,” Garsh said.

Cherven had written an affidavit in support of the search warrant saying that he wanted to obtain electronic devices equipped with GPS because Hernandez, the former Patriots tight end, had previously said that he had homicide victim Odin Lloyd’s address saved in his GPS. Cherven also said that he was looking for any evidence from the damaged Nissan Altima believed to have been used during Lloyd’s murder in the North Attleborough Industrial Park.

Prosecutors allege that Hernandez, 24, and two accomplices drove Lloyd, 27, of Dorchester, to the industrial park, where he was shot five times with a .45-caliber handgun. Hernandez is charged with murder and firearms-related offenses.

Despite the police interest in the GPS-equipped items, the actual search warrant application listed only Hernandez’s cellphone, which had a Connecticut-area phone number, as well as his home video surveillance system.

During a motion hearing in June, Cherven testified that the search warrant, affidavit and application form were paper-clipped together in a folder when they were presented to a clerk magistrate. Cherven also said that he carried the materials in a manila folder during the search at Hernandez’s home.

However, Garsh wrote Tuesday that she “does not credit” Cherven’s testimony, and she added that the unedited television news footage during the search does not show Cherven carrying any documents into Hernandez’s home. Garsh said the only document that Hernandez apparently saw was the actual search warrant, not the affidavit.

“The police operated under the misimpression that the search warrant authorized the seizure of GPS devices when they seized the cellphones and tablets from Hernandez’s residence,” Garsh wrote.

In addition, Garsh noted that a state police detective had already obtained the cellphone specifically mentioned in the search warrant well before police seized the iPads and an iPhone that had a “bedazzled” case, which Garsh suggested that police had no reasonable basis to believe was the phone they were authorized to seize.

Garsh previously denied the defense team’s request to suppress the cellphone and home video surveillance system that were mentioned in the warrant.
